Appropedia welcomes the WikiGreen community!

For the last few weeks, folks at WikiGreen and Appropedia have considered how best to collaborate on our shared goals. The decision: Assimilation! So, faster than you can build a strawbale greenhouse, nearly 1000 pages and over 1000 images have been migrated from WikiGreen to Appropedia. Woohoo! And yet, some tidying up remains. Please pardon our "dust" as we wrap up the integration.

Appropedia is a dynamic and open library wiki, focused on success in two core initiatives:

  • Reducing poverty through International Development
  • Increasing Sustainability through the use of Appropriate Technology
